Frank Sabatino, Fisherman

Frank Sabatino went on his first overnight fishing trip when he was eight-years-old. Since then, Frank has spent nearly 40 years on lobster boats, clam boats, and larger fishing vessels. Today, he operates his own 27-year-old wooden trawler, the Tammy Gale, with his son Mike. Frank Sabatino is one of the last fishermen left in Brooklyn.
